WALPOLE, N.H. -- The Walpole Players announce the fifth annual production of Charles Dickens’ classic "A Christmas Carol" in The Helen Miller Theater at the Walpole Town Hall on Wednesday through Saturday, Dec. 12-15, as its gift to the community.

The performances begin at 7 p.m., when Charles Dickens arrives to read his classic tale. In conjunction with Dickens’ reading, the Walpole Players perform 12 scenes from the story as the Ghosts of Christmases Past, Present and Future escort Scrooge through his redemption and transformation.

In the keeping of the Christmas Spirit, as learned by Ebenezer Scrooge, the performances will be held to benefit the Fall Mountain Food Shelf and Our Place Drop-In Center which have both long provided meals and needed groceries to people in Alstead, Acworth, Langdon, North Walpole, Walpole and in Vermont in Bellows Falls, Saxtons River, Westminster.

Admission is free, but tickets are required because of limited space. Tickets are available in Walpole at Real to Reel, Galloway Real Estate, Costume Ladies, Murray’s and Jake’s. In Bellows Falls, tickets may be obtained at Village Square Booksellers. In lieu of paid admission, the Walpole Players ask each person attending to make a monetary donation to the Fall Mountain Food Shelf and Our Place Drop-In Center.
